Subject:Good vanagon parts source/junkyard in Seattle?
From:Zach White

Hi Everyone,

I apologize for asking something that's already in the archives, but I
hope my circumstances will be forgivable.

I have an '84 GL that I'm working on bringing from ok to good
condition. My effort is hampered by living in Richland, WA, where it
can be difficult to find a good selection of parts. In particular, I
need a new instrument cluster as the current cluster has been held
together by ducttape and zip ties for far too long. I also need some
other random interior and exterior parts (new sliding door, arm rests,
et al) that are either difficult to find online or would be prohibitive
to ship.

I'm going to be in Seattle this weekend but I'll only have a few hours
saturday to look around and find stuff. As such, I was hoping to hear
from anyone that has been parts hunting recently and could share which
places have the best selection right now, or even which places have the
best selection generally. Ideally I'd like a junkyard where I can
wander around and pull parts as needed, but regular stores and
junkyards that pull stuff for you will work too.

Thanks for any advice you can give.

-Zach
